Re: Doodle

Hi Folks, Thanks Ralph & Andrew for your suggestions. Now here is the final vacation Doodle (21) for this year : An animated Rythm Box, (Best using headphones). UNZIP, LRUN, and after two startup tones, you see the BEEP parameters printed with the rythm 'symbols' below. (See notes at head of lis...

Re: Doodle

Hi Ralph, I wonder if the cause of the flickering comes from FILLing the 'off-screen' part of the 'body'-ellipse ? While one core is processsing the unwanted filled lines, another core may be doing the CLS ? Again, does the flickering occur on mono-core systems ? When I get back home, I will try on ...

Re: Doodle

Hi again, Doodle 20 is a 'selfie' with a twist ! But I get flickering on my 3-core laptop, and wonder if this would be the case on mono-cores ? My summer vacation is coming to an end, so today I will attempt a final doodle, before getting back to other more important tasks.... Steve. Steve_bas.zip 9...

Re: Doodle

Hi, Doodle 17 was an attempt to get extra colours by XORing them and redrawing the scene shifting one pixel right to get three-colour stipples. To demonstrate the effet, the following images were repeatedly drawn. For brighter hues, change line 240 to be o=rnd(0). The side-effect is the 'ghosting' o...

Re: Doodle

Hi, Spook_bas, the 'PacMan' in 3D space program, took more time to do than the other Doodles, as it was hard to work out how to get clear graphical output. If anyone knows why a few recalcitrant pixels remain on screeen, please let me know. _____________ The next Doodle, (16), only took an hour or s...

Re: Doodle

Hi Again, Sorry, I forgot to mention the essentials : Numpad Keys are : left(4), right(6), up(8), down(2), also fore(x), aft(s), (e)scape. This is because my french laptop won't correctly map all keys. When I get home I may try to do a standard QL version ! Good luck... Steve. __________

Re: Doodle

Hi Folks, Doodle 15 took me more time than usual to do. I have always wanted a 3D Pacman-type game, but never found out how to keep the graphics output clear... So I have removed the 'labyrinth', in '3D space', as you have plenty to concentrate on. You start in LEARNing mode (play=2), but the QL can...
